Grandpa's Snoopy Stuff

Saturday, we went to Great Grandma Mary's house and went threw 5 boxes of Great Grandpa Art's Snoopy stuff. I could not believe that R's Grandpa had so much snoopy stuff.
We found, book ends, stuff animals, lots of different figures, a pillow, toys, dishes, etc. I don't think anything had a date from after 1975... we talking vintage Snoopy.
We took a box full of things home and we are going to go threw them as we decorate the baby's room.

So far, if you can imagine it, the plan for the baby's room is... Grandpa Ives is going to turn the closet into a dog house door (by rounding he corners) and then we are going to paint the rest of the dog house on the wall with the sky and the grass. The remaining 3 walls are in plan to be yellow, with Charlie Brown's zigzag strip running threw the middle of the wall. We have also found these really cute Snoopy and the gang wall decals that we are going to add as well.
We will then put some shelves up with Great Grandpa's Snoopy stuff.

Also Grandpa Van, dug out his Peanut comic books, that he got at Dayton's downtown about 30 some years ago, for the baby's room. Works great with the Snoopy bookends, they have all already made their way to the dresser top.

R and I are really happy that we changed our minds on the baby room cause this room is a little special to everyone!
